I read somewhere today that if you dread Mondays, then you spend 1/7 of your life wasted on dreading one day a week. I am guilty for the occasional Monday dread, but I definitely don’t want to waste 1/7 of my life on it! So, I woke up bright and early this morning to hit the gym for a sweaty cardio workout.
I have decided to plan out my weekly gym sessions as follows:
Monday, Wednesday & Friday: cardio workout that I will mix up between the treadmill, running outside, elliptical and stairmaster
Tuesday: BodyPump
Thursday: 24 S.E.T. (I am trying the class for the first time this week, so I will see how it goes)
Saturday: Light Cardio with weight training/circuits or Rest Day
Sunday: Rest Day
*My rest days typically consist of a couple long dog walks as well as being out and about, so I guess it could be considered active rest?!
It felt great to start the week off with a morning workout and I am feeling good about the early morning wake up! It is so true (at least for me) that early morning gym workouts are the best way to be consistent with a gym routine.
My breakfast was a delicious bowl of oatmeal with peanut butter and some of these guys:
get in my tummy!
4 lbs of strawberries for $7.99?! Don’t mind if I do! Obviously, Michael and I will be feasting on these through the week so this probably won’t be the first time you see them! 
Work today was super busy and I felt like I looked at the clock at 10am, then again at 4:45 when it was almost time to go home. I love those days! But, only when I am productive as well, which I was.
I made a pretty tasty dinner tonight, and if you like bruschetta, then I suggest checking back in tomorrow!!
As a parting gift (and so that the title of this post makes sense, here is today’s picture – a faceless self-portrait:
I’m getting my hair done on Wednesday – I think it is time to take an inch or two off…what do you think?!
Kelsey! Just found your blog..love it! btw, set is by far the best class you can take! I have been going for the past 3-4 years and I still love it and it still gives me a great workout! (as long as the instructor knows what they are doing haha!) Hope you are doing great!
